Sue Hun, Heather Parnell
Possible Presents is an exhibition of recent and ongoing work by Wales-based artists Sue Hunt and Heather Parnell. Both artists respond to the theme in distinct yet overlapping ways, compelled to explore the complex relationships between people and the world around them.
Sue Hunt explores the presence of botanical forms, rooted in drawing, painting, and printmaking. Her abstract work reflects nature’s fragility and interconnectedness. Through material and metaphor, Sue’s visual language offers space to reflect on the enduring, sometimes sacred yet ephemeral forces that shape our relationship with the natural world.
Heather Parnell investigates the overlooked materials of daily life, such as discarded packaging, pocket remains or pavement dust. Her practice involves a systematic exploration of form and habit through drawing, printing, casting, stitching, wrapping and folding. She reclaims the trivial with care and curiosity, discovering new offerings that are often surprising and unexpected.
During the exhibition, Sue and Heather will collaborate on new artworks within the gallery. The artist will be present on the 27th, 28th and 29th, and customers will be invited to participate in the creative process and work together to create the piece. The artist will use OBJECTS brought by customers to the gallery to create a collaborative piece. And finally your collaboration will ultimately result in a special artwork. There are no restrictions on the OBJECTS we can use in the creations. It can be a piece of paper, a stone on the road, a piece of lint in your pocket, something you were about to throw away, something important, a picture, words, anything is fine. The Possible Presents you bring will be extra special Possible Presents. We look forward to your participation.
The exhibition is part of Project Wales-Japan 2025 Wales Japan Culture Fund, supported by Wales Arts International and British Council Wales.
